Saliva is an etiological factor of caries. It acts stabilizing pH by its concentration of carbonates and phosphates. When the oral hygiene is deficient, pH becomes acid and optimal for the demineralization of teeth surfaces. If a diet rich in sugars and flour predominates, they become more acid and the risk of caries beginning is imminent. To determinate the behavior of salivary pH and demonstrate the effectiveness of the brushing as a low cost, efficient, easy application prevention measure, in children with cariogenic risk, samples of saliva of 44 children between 6 and 8 were taken, from San Martin de Porres district, before and after breakfast and analyzed with a potentiometer. GROUP 1: with old bacterial plaque (without previous tooth brashing) and GROUP 2: with recent bacterial plaque (with previous tooth brushing). According to “t” test analysis, the variation of pH salivary i...

Periodontal diseases after dental caries are the most prevalent in the dental health is concerned. The gingivitis and periodontitis are the result of the presence of bacteria and their products capable of altering the tissue and the host response. Studies on action of Camellia sinensis (green tea) on microorganisms of periodontal disease, demonstrates the beneficial effects of this product and the application potential in different areas. Therefore the purpose of the study was to determine the in vivo effectiveness of a gel made from carboximetilcelulosa and alcoholic extract of green tea, and in vitro on microorganisms associated with periodontal disease: P. loeschi, P.anaerobius and Capnocytophaga. The results show the presence of halos of inhibition of green tea extract at concentrations of 100 %, 75 %, 50 % and 25 %, the gel was observed only action on the site of contact, no halo. R...
